Diagnostic Testing
Our diagnostic testing services utilize advanced technology to identify cardiovascular conditions through non-invasive procedures. We offer electrocardiograms, stress testing, holter monitoring, and Doppler studies to assess heart function and blood flow. These tests help physicians determine optimal treatment plans while minimizing patient discomfort.
Advanced Imaging
Cardiology Associates provides state-of-the-art imaging services including cardiac PET, CT angiography, and Cleerly coronary analysis. Our facilities house ultra-fast CT scanners and AI-powered diagnostic tools to detect heart disease with exceptional precision. These technologies enable early intervention and personalized treatment strategies for improved patient outcomes.
Structural Heart Care
Our structural heart program specializes in treating complex valve disorders through minimally invasive procedures. We offer transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) using advanced catheterization techniques. These procedures reduce recovery time while maintaining high treatment efficacy for patients with structural heart conditions.
Peripheral Vascular Services
We diagnose and treat peripheral vascular disease through comprehensive vascular testing and interventional procedures. Our services include angiography, stenting, and balloon angioplasty for patients with circulatory issues affecting limbs and organs. These treatments improve blood flow and prevent complications from vascular disease progression.

Our heart failure program combines advanced diagnostics with personalized treatment plans for patients with congestive heart failure. We utilize specialized testing, medication management, and device therapies to improve quality of life. The program focuses on slowing disease progression while optimizing patient functionality through coordinated care.

Dr. Glenn Cochran & his nurse Raven are the best health care providers I've had in all my years of being a cardiac patient.

Dr. Thornton saved my life the other night. I woke up with what felt like an elephant on my chest. Horrific pain that would not go away. After the slowest ambulance in history finally inched up my driveway, they got me to Thomas where the ER staff was literally miraculous. I had a 100% blockage of the LAD and only my wife's quick-thinking (and knowledge of where our very old bottle of nitroglycerin was) and their very fast turnaround saved my life. Protocol gives them 90 minutes from the door of the ER to the cath lab and they had me there in less than 40.
I was literally dying and they saved me. I am so incredibly grateful. The last thing I remember is Dr. Thornton coming in and I was in excruciating pain. He assured me that all would be well. Next thing I know, I was awake and joking that he was getting a 5 star review on yelp. Thank God for Dr. Thornton and the amazing team at Thomas!

Absolute horrible people to work for. Don't train people correctly, lie to employees, just an outright dump to work in.
